In reply to Paxil and Effexor Withdrawal Strategies - Input ?, posted by SLS on July 9, 2000, at 16:47:34
i discontinued effexor after taking it for about eight months and trying several augmentations. i'd been taking trazadone for sleeping for about 15 mos. i had been taking 75 mg effexor twice a day and cut down to 75 mg + 34 1/2 mg (half a pill) a day for a couple of weeks and started 30 mg remeron/day. i continued to decrease the effexor dose and stopped taking trazadone bcs the remeron was sedating. i didn't experience any real noticeable withdrawal effects except a lot of fatigue, which seemed attributable mostly to the remeron. the whole process lasted nearly a month and i was working with my psychiatrist. jules
